thewrathcrap03:06
thewrathdisregard please03:06
thewraththe web form you guys need is that a general one?03:06
boredandbloggingweb form?03:07
nhandlerAnd thewrath, you should consider creating a new key and getting this one revoked. You wouldn't want someone to revoke it without you knowing03:07
thewrathnhandler: all ready revoke03:07
thewrath?03:09
thewrathnvm the ?03:09
thewrathi was not scrolled down03:09
thewrathboredandblogging: looking for the link03:10
thewrathhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fridge under tasks...03:10
thewraththe first item03:10
boredandblogginglet me look03:12
nhandlerboredandblogging: I'll defer to you. I'm not sure how up-to-date that list is, especially with the planned fridge redesign.03:12
boredandbloggingthewrath: yeah, something like that would be nice03:13
thewrathok03:14
thewrathwhat details would need to be on it03:14
boredandbloggingwhile at the same time not being completely full of spam03:14
thewrathteh only spam i may put is in recaptcha03:14
boredandbloggingsomething like Subject, Link, Quick Summary, and email address03:14
thewraththey would have to be logged in right?03:16
boredandbloggingno03:16
boredandbloggingbut03:16
thewrathso captcha okay?03:16
boredandbloggingthat may be something we need to add later03:16
thewrathok so i can add captcha so "spam" gets added03:16
nhandlerYou could use OpenID to eliminate the need for the captcha and email address03:17
boredandbloggingthewrath: are you thinking about doing this in php?03:17
thewrathyes i03:17
boredandbloggingthink the first version can be just captcha03:18
thewrathk03:18
boredandbloggingbut openid/LP integration would be the next step03:18
thewrathtrue03:18
thewrathi do not know how to do that i think ic an talk to paultag who is part of bt about that03:19
nhandlerboredandblogging: What would be the use case for something like this?03:19
thewrathnhandler: has he made his bug tracker use that?03:19
nhandlerthewrath: I don't know. But OpenID is pretty well documented. It shouldn't be too hard to get it working03:19
boredandbloggingnhandler: sorry, use case for what?03:21
nhandlerboredandblogging: A form to submit news stories for the fridge. Since the form requires an email address, wouldn't it be just as easy to send an email to the list?03:22
boredandbloggingsending an email to the list requires subscribing to the list03:22
boredandbloggingsomeone might have a drive by idea03:22
boredandbloggingor a link they just saw03:23
nhandlerI thought non-subscribed users just had to wait for their message to go through the moderation queue03:23
boredandbloggingthey can03:23
boredandbloggingits just an alternate way of submitting news03:23
boredandbloggingthe web form is just an alternate way03:24
nhandlerBut what would it accomplish? Unless the form changed the From field on the email before sending it to the list, it would still need to be moderated if the user was not subscribed.03:24
boredandbloggingyes, but the sender doesn't get a message saying their message is waiting for approval and all that03:25
nhandlerWhy wouldn't they? The email would be listed as coming from them, so they would get the email.03:26
thewrathso i can do it in php with recaptcha... boredandblogging who should i send it to?03:27
thewrathi will zip it, encrypt and sign it03:27
boredandbloggingactually, I was thinking the email would be if we wanted to credit someone with the story03:27
boredandbloggingor need more info03:27
nhandlerSo the form would send the idea to the list using its own email address?03:28
boredandbloggingyeah, we would need to probably send it using an email address that the list would let through automatically03:29
boredandbloggingwith maybe a subject like "Fridge Submission: foo bar baz"03:29
thewrathboredandblogging: who should i send my files to? what is the mailing list e-mail address?03:30
thewrathi will need to know that to tet it03:30
boredandbloggingthewrath: can you check it in to LP?03:31
boredandbloggingthewrath: ubuntu-news-team@lists.ubuntu.com03:31
thewrathsorry i am sucky dsl atm and have oen machien on my network doing udates03:35
